Chuck Gets His Tunnel: ‘We’re Able to Accomplish More in the Minority’
Breitbart ^ | 23 Mar 2018 | SEAN MORAN

Posted on 03/23/2018 4:46:56 PM PDT by conservative98

Schumer said, “It’s a funny thing. In a certain sense, we’re able to accomplish more in the minority than we were when we had the presidency or even were in the majority.”

The Senate Minority Leader continued, “At the end of the day, as the minority party, we feel good about being able to succeed in so many ways. We don’t have the House, we don’t have the Senate, we don’t have the presidency, but we produced a darn good bill for the priorities we have believed in.”

Sen. Schumer also touted the inclusion of the Gateway bridge project in the omnibus, as well as increased funding for the National Institute of Health (NIH).

House Freedom Caucus chairman Mark Meadows (R-NC) lamented in an interview with Breitbart News Daily on Tuesday that the “Senate Democrats seem to be calling most of the shots.”

I would just not vote. Holding my nose again just wasn’t worth it.

WE HAVE consistently voted in conservatives ONLY TO FIND that after a year in DC they have become swamp dwellers!!! Mia Love, Marco Rubio, AND what the HELL has happened to Mike Lee??? Voting these BASTARDS in does nothing but send them to DC to enrich themselves!!!!! I wish I could remember ALL of the names of the SO CALLED Tea Party members that we have sent to DC that are now RINOS and become VERY WEALTHY once they are there it is DAMNED NEAR impossible to rid ourselves of these CREATURES!!!!

When any one of these three is happy you had better hold on to your billfold.

When any two of the three is happy you had better hold on to your billfold and keep your back to the wall.

When all three are happy it's too late - your billfold is already gone and the knife is in your back.

P.S.
Notice that Nana Piglosi is missing from the celebration.
She has become so toxic that even a bottom-feeding paste-eater like Schmucky Schumer doesn't want to be photographed with her.

There doesn’t seem to be much point in voting. The Democrats always win in the end.

I too am upset, but if the choices were the same as the last election, I would vote for Trump again tomorrow
//////////////////////

Unfortunately It’s not that simple. Trump is not on the ballot in 2018. Many people will simply not vote. Off years are bad historically for the party in power and this one will be horrendous after Trump has been castrated by his own party. Impeachment and obstruction will come from democrat controlled house and senate. Trump deep state enemies will not be prosecuted and will return to power. good luck also with conservative supreme court appointment. this is intentional and was the plan all along.

I am sure in the 2000 pages there is a loophole and Trumps lawyers are gonna find it.

I will never vote again.

Read some of your posts and took you for a troll, but read your posting history and I think perhaps you're genuinely just going a bit crazy.

Spending bill is only for 6 months and most normal Americans don't actually care about spending, only on what it is being spent on. Don't confuse your hyper-political observations and fatalism to be the norm. It isn't. That's the first step to avoiding an untimely suicide, which surely follows the declarations of "I'll never vote again."

Nope.Wrong. That bill actually says no new budget can be passed until 2020 at which time it will be continuing resolution after continuing resolution. We were totally screwed by lying trump.

I don't know if that's true, but I also know it doesn't really matter as much as you think.

I have to agree with Trump on this. Military is priority for ensuring Nork disarmament, which he will accomplish shortly. The wall will be built with or without Congress, which can pass a bill funding it at any time--if they had the will, but they do not, regardless of whatever they say. Not even those "23" people who voted against the bill, whom you said would include our "next candidate," will vote for a wall. The "True Conservatives" are all corrupt. Trump candidates are at a minimum.

As for "lying Trump." Please do not vote, but also, keep your opinion to yourself! Last thing we need is for people like you demoralizing us for midterms and 2020. Even with the current pack of f****ts, things would be worse with a Dem majority in House and Senate.

The wall will never ever be built. That is totally over. Trump will resign or be impeached after the slaughter in november. It will be brutal. All his fault.

You should watch that Alex Jones video making fun of you—well, people like you. Just posted but got taken down. Still, got a feeling you’re a fan.
